-Currently working on the SILC documentation is in progress and the software
-does not have extensive documentation at all.

-<b>SILC Protocol Internet Drafts</b>
-<br /><br />
-<font size="2">
-SILC Protocol is documented and four Internet Drafts exist. These
-Internet Drafts are also available from
-<a href="http://www.ietf.org">IETF</a>.
-<br><b>Updated on Sun Jul 22 22:01:38 EEST 2001</b>: These new
-updated drafts will be submitted to the IETF after the August 14th 2001.

-<b>Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC), Protocol Specification</b>
-<br /><br />
-Abstract
-<br /><br />
- This memo describes a Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC)
- protocol which provides secure conferencing services over insecure
- network channel. SILC is IRC [IRC] like protocol, however, it is
- not equivalent to IRC and does not support IRC. Strong cryptographic
- methods are used to protect SILC packets inside the SILC network.
- Three other Internet Drafts relates very closely to this memo;
- SILC Packet Protocol [SILC2], SILC Key Exchange and Authentication
- Protocols [SILC3] and SILC Commands [SILC4].

-<b>SILC Packet Protocol</b>
-<br /><br />
-Abstract
-<br /><br />
- This memo describes a Packet Protocol used in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing (SILC) protocol, specified in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing, Protocol Specification Internet Draft [SILC1]. This
- protocol describes the packet types and packet payloads which defines
- the contents of the packets. It provides secure binary packet protocol
- that assures that the content of the packets is secured and authenticated.

-<b>SILC Key Exchange and Authentication Protocols</b>
-<br /><br />
-Abstract
-<br /><br />
- This memo describes two protocols used in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing (SILC) protocol, specified in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing, Protocol Specification internet-draft [SILC1]. The
- SILC Key Exchange (SKE) protocol provides secure key exchange between
- two parties resulting into shared secret key material. The protocol
- is based on Diffie-Hellman key exchange algorithm and its functionality
- is derived from several key exchange protocols. SKE uses best parts
- of the SSH2 Key Exchange protocol, Station-To-Station (STS) protocol
- and the OAKLEY Key Determination protocol [OAKLEY].
-<br /><br />
- The SILC Connection Authentication protocol provides user level
- authentication used when creating connections in SILC network. The
- protocol is transparent to the authentication data which means that it
- can be used to authenticate the user with, for example, passphrase
- (pre-shared-secret) or public key (and certificate).

-<b>SILC Commands</b>
-<br /><br />
-Abstract
-<br /><br />
- This memo describes the commands used in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing (SILC) protocol, specified in the Secure Internet Live
- Conferencing, Protocol Specification Internet Draft [SILC1]. The
- SILC Commands are very important part of the SILC protocol. Usually
- the commands are used by SILC clients to manage the SILC session, but
- also SILC servers may use the commands. This memo specifies detailed
- command messages and command reply messages.
